Supporting families, educators, and child care providers every step of the way.

Your trusted local guide for all things childcare.
As Greater Victoria's government-funded Child Care Resource & Referral program, we have been connecting families with accessing a range of child care options and supporting the educators and child care providers who provide care since 1990. Sponsored by the Single Parent Resource Centre and funded by the BC Ministry of Education and Child Care, we are one of 40 CCRR programs supporting communities across the province. We maintain the most current database of registered providers in the region, and offer educators the tools, funding information, and professional development they need to do their vital work.
Proudly Serving Victoria
We proudly serve families and child care providers throughout the SD61 Catchment, including Victoria, Esquimalt, Oak Bay, View Royal, and Saanich. Wherever you are in the region, our referral consultants can match you with licensed care options nearby and help you navigate subsidy applications, waitlists, and next steps.

August 3, 2026July Bulletin – Victoria CCRR
We would like to acknowledge that the Victoria Child Care Resource & Referral program is located on the traditional territories of the Lekwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ peoples, on whose traditional territories we live, we learn, we play, and we do our work.
We acknowledge that the historical relationship to the land and territories of these peoples continues to this day. We acknowledge that acts of colonization (such as requiring Indigenous children to attend residential schools, and the ongoing high rates of Indigenous children in care), has made many inequities for First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. Despite these acts of colonization, Indigenous people continue to have vibrant communities and cultures.
As a community-serving organization we recognize that we have the responsibility to work towards truth and reconciliation, and to remain open to suggestions and consultations, especially with local First Nations, Inuit and Métis people, about how our organization can continue to work towards reconciliation. We hope that the Victoria Child Care Resource and Referral Program acts as a gathering space for children, families, and elders, and is a safe, welcoming, and engaging environment for all people, including Indigenous peoples.
